RTK 8 has the same free officer to liege gameplay that I love and RTK has the best battles in the series.

For all players, there is a tutorial story-like campaign mode in hero mode that is highly recommended especially for those who want to know more about the three kingdom story but can be confusing at times on some of the steps to take and the lack of warning of time remaining for each campaign.
Difficulty
Players who bring up Difficulty mostly praise it.
